Hi Bob



 BL> I got all excited writing macros, but unless you use it lots,

 BL> you may as well just write it longhand a few times.



 RM> Complex macros in C are frowned on, they can almost always be

 RM> written in conventional code in the same space.



 BL>   This came out of a tight loop (zmodem?) where I was calling a

 BL> function in Pascal several times and Paul was using a macro... The

 BL> Pascal approach ran at HALF speed. When I changed my function to

 BL> code written several times as you suggest, it was as fast as C and

 BL> five-times as messy. Calling the function was taking most of the time.



Declare the function "inline". Neat, fast, takes a bit more space

in the exe.



Cheers
